hello i have a whirlpool fridge about 3 weeks ago that starting getting really hot between the freezer/ fridge panel door. I,ve tried cleaning the coils which didnt seem to work very long. i removed the rear cover and placed a fan behind the fridge and it cooled rapidly. Im trying to figure out what else could be the problem .. I,ve been told its the fan by a few appliance stores, however the fan does run but its still hot. I really need to fix this asap because i just recieved my electric bill and oh lord it hurt..Im assuming the fridge is causing this issue because thats the only appliance having a issue.. Anyways any idea's. Thanks justin

The fan behind the cardboard cover is the problem. If it's running now and it's still hot on the middle section then the fan may not be running at full speed or sometimes it come on and sometimes it don't. But that fan or it's power supply is the problem.
